S-96242A768 3/8"-16 x 2 1/2" 12-Point Screws

Key Features & Benefits at a Glance

• Exceptional corrosion resistance with 450 Stainless Steel construction, ideal for harsh industrial environments
• Superior load-bearing capacity thanks to 170,000 psi tensile strength and Rockwell C37 hardness
• Precise, secure fastening ensured by Class 3A thread fit for reduced vibration loosening
• High-torque installation capability with external 12-point drive and 3/8" drive size
• Enhanced stability and load distribution from the integrated flange design
• Optimized for coarse thread applications with UNC threading for faster assembly in softer materials
• Reliable partial threading provides unthreaded shank for improved shear strength

Professional Applications & Engineering Value

Engineered for demanding environments, these 12-point screws in 450 Stainless Steel deliver critical corrosion resistance and structural integrity where failure is not an option. The Class 3A thread fit maintains tight tolerances in high-vibration machinery, while the external 12-point drive allows for high-torque installation with standard tools. The flanged design eliminates the need for separate washers, distributing clamp load effectively in heavy-duty assemblies like construction equipment, transportation systems, and industrial machinery. With 170,000 psi tensile strength, they provide reliable performance in structural applications where coarse UNC threading ensures rapid installation without compromising joint security.

Specification Summary & Compliance

This 3/8"-16 UNC screw features Class 3A thread fit for precision assembly, manufactured to ASME/ANSI standards with right-hand coarse thread spacing. The 2-1/2" length and partial threading provide optimal unthreaded shank length for enhanced shear resistance. Compliant with RoHS and REACH environmental standards, these screws meet industrial requirements for heavy-duty applications requiring reliable corrosion resistance and mechanical performance.
